Salina Christmas

The maternal grandfather of Sarah, the protagonist. Also the nephew of Moyang from his maternal side. When he is first introduced to The Constant Companion Tales, Syed Alwi is a young, handsome man of 18 years of age. Bored of the village rounds, he asks to be transferred to a post where all the action is. He is under the charge of Sergeant Lindsey Wright. Because of his position in the Special Branch, his own family keeps things secret from him. Especially when they hatch a plan to attack the enemies using magic and the family’s “heirloom”. He knows of the family’s Constant Companion but would rather not talk about it. His experience being in the Defence Forces during the Emergency period turns Syed Alwi into a quiet, contemplative man.
